Check out the eventhook mechanism described in dhcpagent(1M).  You can
create a script using that which will populate /etc/resolv.conf using
the information retrieved from dhcpinfo(1).

What "network setting" GUI are you referring to?

You can either lower the amount of time to wait for a lease by putting
e.g. "wait 20" into /etc/dhcp.yukonx0 (to wait 20 seconds), or you can
skip plumbing during boot.
